During the 2013 Concorso d'Eleganza of Villa d'Este, in Italy, I filmed the Ralph Lauren's Bugatti Type 57 SC Atlantic (chassis 57591). This car is deemed as "the most beautiful car ever made" and "the ultimate Bugatti creation" by many people. I'm not sure I belong to one of these category of people (probabily because I'm not a fan of luxury and very old cars) but I had to admit this car has left me quite amazed.
The car was the last one of only four Type 57 SC Atlantic ever made. It was built in 1938 for a British enthusiast who kept it for about three following decades. In the subsequent 20 years, the car passed to various hands untill, in 1988, it was acquired by the fashion designer Ralph Lauren who decided to restore it (when it was produced this Atlantic was painted in a sapphire blue colour). In 1990, after a two years restoration, the car made its post-restoration debut and immediately won the "Best of Show" award at the Pebble Beach Concours.
The Atlantic is moved by a 3.3 liter Supercharged straight 8 engine which can produce 210 bhp @ 5500 rpm and reach a top speed of 210 km/h (130 mph).
The car is also well known to be the world's most expensive car after that, in April 2010, the first 1936 Bugatti Type 57 SC was sold privately for an amount between 30$ - 40$ million.

I'm 22 and I think it's utterly gorgeous. Right along side a McLaren F1 LM, a 1960 Corvette, and a Maserati GranTurismo. You don't have to be old or young to enjoy the looks of any kind of car.

It was too far ahead of its time. And yet, it didn't have windshield wipers. Probably would have taken away from its beauty.

[@89ry89]

id like to know why too

[@suckahtubeyew1821]

As somebody who knows nothing about cares, can anyone please explain why the second driver fucks with the shifter three times before ever moving?

[@cumminsfan]

***** Probably no other reason than to make sure it's firmly in gear, and it the proper gear as well. It would be mighty embarrassing for the driver if he accidentally selected third instead of first and stalled the thing out, or didn't have it all the way in gear and jumped to neutral (with a nasty grind of the gears). A bit of nerves getting the better of the driver perhaps, but its always best to check things. I do the same thing with my few standard shift rigs.

[@gullreefclub]

***** If you paid attention the "second driver" is the same person that originally moved the car. Also if notice when the driver moved the car the second he put the car in gear and pulled it out again and put it in gear again but when he started to let off the clutch he starter to go backwards for maybe 6 or so inches and he put the engaged the clutch again and the got the car in first gear(or maybe third) and drove forward. I have driven a number of pre-wwII cars and each one of them's gearbox has it's own personality. Remember no of these gearboxes were synchronized and some of them had strange shift patterns compared to today's cars. An one thing's for sure if you are the driver\care taker of Ralph Lauren's 1938 Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic you sure as hell don't want to be grinding them to find them. Hell this guy is looking at the dust on the car and thinking I have at least a week's worth of work detailing it when I get it home. By the way they are only something like 3 of these cars in existence in 2010 a 1936 model sold for just under 40 Million Dollars.
